Chinese Cabbage and Nagaimo Gratin
My son doesn't like Chinese cabbage. I made this recipe to get him to eat Chinese cabbage without his knowledge. Children love gratin dishes. You can sprinkle minced Japanese leek with the pizza cheese to taste. He wouldn't know there are vegetables he doesn't like in the dish. Nagaimo becomes fluffy when cooked. You can enjoy a different texture.
Do not overcook the Chinese cabbage and nagaimo to ensure they still retain their good texture. This white sauce is my own recipe. If you find it too runny add more butter and flour. Recipe by Suu

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Cut the nagaimo into thick semicircular slices. Microwave until tender enough for a skewer to be inserted easily (at 700 W for 1 minute and 40 seconds). Cut the bacon and Chinese cabbage into bite-sized pieces.
- 2
Make the white sauce. Put the butter in a pot over a medium heat and melt. Add the strong flour and sauté over a low heat.
- 3
When the butter and flour mixture become smooth, turn the heat off. Add the milk in one go and stir constantly over a low heat until smooth and thickened to the desired consistency.
- 4
Season with salt and sugar (this makes about 300 g of white sauce).
- 5
Melt some butter (not listed in the ingredients) in a frying pan. Fry the bacon and Chinese cabbage quickly. Add the nagaimo and mix all together. Season with salt and pepper (not listed in the ingredients).
- 6
Turn the heat to low and add Step 4. Bring to the boil quickly and then turn the heat off.
- 7
Transfer to a oven-proof dish and sprinkle with pizza cheese. Bake in an oven toaster until the top is golden brown.

Salmon & Chinese Cabbage Gratin Soup Salmon & Chinese Cabbage Gratin Soup
I'm really happy with the way the cooking sake I used eliminates any fishiness of fish. My kids also really liked this and enjoyed eating the fish.Cod is delicious in this too instead of salmon. Use whatever vegetables you like. Depending on how it's heated and the amount of Chinese cabbage, the thickness of the flavor may change, so adjust with milk as you see fit. If you feel the taste is too bland, add a small amount of soup stock granules. Recipe by miyuki12

Salmon and Spinach Japanese Style Gratin Salmon and Spinach Japanese Style Gratin
I intended to make a gratin with salmon and spinach, but with a lighter taste rather than the usual rich one. I came up with the idea of adding tofu in the white sauce to make it into a Japanese style. I also wanted to cut down on time, so tried using just one frying pan for the ease of cleaning at the end.Coat the ingredients with flour to fry, and make the white sauce at the same time, so it's really easy.Blanch the spinach to remove its bitterness. Use the frying pan to do this, and carry on cooking with just one pan, so clearing up is done in no time. Recipe by yaburie -

Adding sake lees to the tofu white sauce really boosts the flavor, and makes the sauce really warming. Furthermore, it's no trouble since all you have to do is mix together the ingredients! I've tried making this a number of times with whatever veggies I have in my fridge, and it goes surprisingly well with most things. A great all-purpose sauce.Since this uses cheese, you can replace the Japanese leeks with potatoes and make potato gratin just as you would with regular white sauce Don't drain the tofu before adding it.

Tofu, Egg and Natto Gratin Tofu, Egg and Natto Gratin
I've been making gratin several times lately,. Even when I get home late, they're easy, healthy, delicious and filling too, so I'm quite addicted to them.I wondered if I could make a simple gratin on my own, and looked in the refrigerator and came up with this.-Silken tofu has a smoother texture, but firm tofu is OK too.-Don't use the mustard packet that comes with the natto. If the natto didn't come with a sauce packet, use soy sauce instead.-If you are using small eggs, use 150 g of tofu. (But it's really up to you and what you prefer...there's no problem if you change the amounts of ingredients to your liking. Recipe by Myajima
